International Trail Day 2015

On June 6th, help us celebrate International Trail Day 2015! Join your community and enjoy your section of Canada’s national trail.

International Trails Day is an annual celebration of trails to promote trail development, the use of trails and the healthy lifestyle they encourage. We’re incredibly fortunate to have hundreds of kilometres of trails winding their way through our region, allowing for biking, walking and a variety of other uses. Not only do trails connect communities, but they also allow people to get out and about and become more physically active. International Trails Day is celebrated each year on the first Saturday in June. This year we celebrate on Saturday, June 6 and we encourage the public to join in the fun and participate in the International Trails Day!

On April 26, 2015 Robin Esrock, the author of The Great Canadian Bucket List spoke at our local fundraiser. We’d like to thank Robin for his efforts, it was a great event!

Renowned travel writer and TV host Robin Esrock spent years visiting every province and territory to craft the definitive national Bucket List. Having travelled to over 100 countries on 6 continents, he never expected Canada to offer so much, and neither will you. This isn”t your typical travel guide – it is an inspiration for your next trip. Full of adventure, humour, photos and fun facts, The Great Canadian Bucket List is the definitive list of things to do in Canada before you die.

For more information on Robin Esrock and the book, you can visit his website: canadianbucketlist.com
